What has BASSA offered as a permanent saving to BA?
I'd genuinely love to know because I've been following this from the beginning and I've seen no evidence of permanent savings being offered. Who knows, if permanent savings are offered, you may even get some joy on your previously mentioned points of difference.
Hang on, you voted not to negotiate though......
